All of the following are examples of real security and privacy threats except:

A. Hackers

B. Virus

C. Spam

D. Worm

Correct Answer is :

C. Spam

Explanation

• Hackers → Real security threat (unauthorized access).
• Virus → Malicious software threat.
• Worm → Self-replicating malware threat.
• Spam → Annoying/unwanted emails or messages, but not directly a security or privacy threat (though it can be used to deliver threats like phishing).

👉 So, Spam is the exception.
